been
missing for three days and, according to Officer Jenny (Maiden Peak's Jenny's cousin's cousin), so have
a lot of other kids. Brock, who beleives this is the most beautiful Officer Jenny he's ever seen
(they all look alike), and Ash, who thinks Arnold's mom looks a little like his own, decide to help out.
Jenny, Ash, Brock and Misty head to the Pokémon Center to ask around and discover another mystery.
All the Pokémon Center's Pokémon, including a Cubone, an Oddish, a Magikarp, a Charmander, and a
Psyduck (a huge duck whose powers come from a mysterious force), have all gone to sleep and haven't
woken up in three days! There has to be a connection. Pikachu falls asleep and Jenny's detector starts
picking up sleep waves (a psychic wavelength that induces sleep).
Our brave detectives leave to check out the source.
Meanwhile, in an undisclosed location, Team Rocket has figured out that the source of the sleep waves
is coming from Hop-hop-hop City. Their dastardly plan: To find the source, steal it, put their boss to
sleep and take a much needed vacation. They may be the bad guys, but even they need a little R&R.
Jenny, Ash, Brock and Misty trace the source to mansion located on the top of a giant building. Inside
the mansion they find the elegantly dressed Pokémon Fan Club celebrating their loss of insomnia due to
the fact that one of their Drowzees (a tapir-descended Pokémon with psycho-hypnotic powers) evolved
into a Hypno three days ago. Hypno's been trained to put humans to sleep, which Brock pointed out
might have a side effect thats affecting the Pokémon in the Center. Ash (I think) suggests that it might
also affect children who are sensitive to Hypno's effects.
Misty looks into Hypno's pendulum, falls into a trance, starts clapping her hands and saying "Seel, Seel.
Seel, Seel", and runs out the door. (A Seel is a white-colored Pokémon not unlike a seal or walrus)
Ash, Brock and Jenny follow Misty to a lake in the park where other kids are acting like Pokémon.
Jenny tries to wake them from their trance but to no avail. The Fan Club's Drowzee or Hypno may be
able to bring them back to normal, so they bring Misty back to the mansion where Drowzee awakens
Misty and Pikachu. The Fan Club lends them Drowzee and our heroes are about to make their way to the
elevator when Team Rocket swoops down in hang-glider packs and challenges
Hypno to hypnotize himself in a mirror. Ash breaks the mirror, so Jesse and James just snags Hypno
and Drowzee with bullwhips. (They would've done that first, but they had to fill up half an hour)
Misty's Staryu snaps the whips and Ash's Pidgeotto blows away Team Rocket (who were still wearing
their hang-glider packs). Ash and friends take Drowzee to the park and cures the afflicted children.
Arnold (who kinda looks like Ash) is reunited with his mother and Drowzee is taken to the Pokémon
Center. The Pokémon return to normal, but Nurse Joy is worried about Psyduck, who still has his hands
on his head. Brock offers to cure him.
They walk down the street, followed by Psyduck, arguing over who gets Psyduck. No one wants it. Brock
thinks Misty should get him, since she's fond of water Pokémon, but she objects, especially after Dexter
the Pokédex says that Psyducks always have headaches. Walking backwards, Misty trips and one of her
Pokéballs rolls toward Psyduck. To Misty's dismay, the cerebrally inflamed duck opens the ball and gets
sucked inside. Looks like she's stuck with it now.
Episode 27 - "Pokémon Fashion Flash"
Ash, Misty and Brock take a walk down Scissor Street, also known as "Breeder's Lane," trying to
find a salon that Brock is looking for. Along the way, they pass "Salon Rocké," a beauty parlor that
puts Pokémon in outrageously bad yet trendy fasions. They find the place Brock's looking for, a salon
run by world-champion Pokémon breeder Susan. An incredibly tense Brock shocks everyone by asking
Susan if he could be her student, but Susan doesn't take students. Also in the salon is Susan's pet
Vulpix (a fire-breathing fox with six tails) which doesn't like to be touched by strangers, as Misty
found out the hard way.
They decide to have lunch (it's a slow day) and talk about Salon Rocké. Susan is surprised to see
Vulpix eat some of Brock's home-made Pokémon food, since she only eats food that Susan has prepared
for her. Returning to the main plot, Susan tells Ash and friends that Salon Rocké has started a fad.
Trainers should care about what Pokémon is like on the inside, but lately trainers has been flocking to
Salon Rocké for the latest fashion. Ash agrees its whats on the inside that counts, a
Pokémon's personality and abilities, but Misty thinks whats on the outside is important too. They get
into an arguement and Ash suggests that if Misty's so sure, she should take Psyduck (who's definately no
fashion model) down to Salon Rocké. Misty releases Psyduck and swears to return as the cutest things
Ash has ever seen.
Susan says that these days trainers are going for looks instead of substance. Brock has a plan: give
customers beauty and substance. Pretty soon, people are flocking to Susan's salon to see Susan's
seminar on Pokémon health and beauty. If a Pokémon feels good on the inside, it'll look good on the
outside. Meanwhile, Misty finds that the line outside Salon Rocké has gotten surprisingly short
surprisingly fast. After getting a fashion make-over, Misty discovers that Salon Rocké is a front for
Team Rocket (kinda obvious with the name and a large picture of Ekans and Koffing out front)! She gets
tied up and commands Psyduck to attack, but the migrane-surplused duck has already made his way to
Susan's salon, where she's having Ash demonstrate how to massage a Pikachu, and tells Pikachu who tells
Ash that Misty's in trouble. Ash and Brock storm into Salon Rocké to find Misty looking absolutely
ridiculous (actually, she likes her new look) and being held captive by Team Rocket. Ash refuses a
ransom of Pikachu, and James introduces Ash and Brock to Salon Rocké's combat platform/fashion
runway.
After saying Salon Rocké's fashion-inspired and Team Rocket parodied motto (Jesse and James are
reeeally into fashion), Jesse and James unleashes a tutu-wearing Koffing and an Ekans that looks like a
christmas tree. Ash and Brock defend with Pikachu and Geodude and the fight is underway. Pikachu gets
knocked for a loop and retaliates with a devastating Thundershock and Geodude give Ekans the ol'
seismic toss! Balerina Koffing gives the heroic Pokémon a sludge-attack make-over, effectively blinding
them! Ekans and Koffing move in for the kill, but trip on their ridiculous outfits and fall on their faces.
A sports jacket clad Meowth rallies his Pokémon compadres and Susan enters the fray with Vulpix. The
cute little Vulpix dishes out a fire-tornado of justice and Team Rocket blasts off
again.
Susan has realized that she still has much to learn, so she still can't accept Brock as her pupil. They
become friendly rivals and Susan gives Brock Vulpix. Ash, Brock and Misty stride off into the sunset
and Team Rocket gets chased by rabid, refund-hungry and generally unsatisfied customers.
Episode 28 - "The Punchy Pokémon"
Our heroes go on their way as they stumble upon a wild Hitmonchan (a weird-looking Pokémon with
boxer gloves). Ash decides to capture it so he teaches Pikachu his special punch to beat it. Pikachu jumps
into the attack with a flurry of punches that don't land as Hitmonchan literally keeps him at arm's
length. Ash commands Pikachu to use the special punch and with a blaze of pyrotechnic effects, Pikachu
blasts off with the rocket punch! The punch lands but has little or no effect. Hitmonchan's trainer
appears and tells him he let his gaurd down. The trainer's daughter, Rebecca, comes out from behind a
tree and begs her father to give up his foolish dreams of Pokémon training and spend some time with his
family. Her father ignores her and goes to his gym to take on challengers.
Rebecca's worried and Brock offers to help in any way possible. Rebecca's father wants to win the
P-1 Grand Prix, and Rebecca wants Ash and Brock to enter the tournement and defeat Hitmonchan to
bring her father to his senses. The P-1 Grand Prix is a tournement for fighting Pokémon and Team
Rocket has their sights set on the championship belt and the prize money. Unfortunately, neither Jesse
nor James has a fighting Pokémon (or many other Pokémon), so the tie up a trainer and steal his clothes
and Hitmonlee (a humanoid creature with no head, also known as the kicking fiend). Disguised as
Hitmonlee's trainer, Jesse (sitting on James's shoulders under a trenchcoat) enters the grand prix.
The first match begins as Ash's Primeape faces off against Machop (a grey lizard-like thing with
hands). A flurry of kicks and a seismic toss sends Primeape flying and Ash leaps to catch him as he flies
out of the ring. Ash attempts to bring Primeape's spirits up before putting him back in the ring. Misty
(in the audience next to Rebecca) notes that this is the first time Primeape has done as Ash
asked, as he usually does what he feels like. Apparently, trying to save Primeape has made him trust Ash.
Primeape thrashes, bashes, and scratches and wins the match. Next up, Brock's Geodude takes on Team
Rocket's Hitmonlee. Geodude gets kicked like a soccer ball into the back of Brock's Rebecca-gazing
head but gets back in the ring. Hitmonlee's kicks wear down Geodude and Rebecca's father convinces
Brock to throw in the towel. Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan and Primeape battle their way to the final rounds.
The match between Hitmons lee and chan is sabatoged as Meowth, from beneath the ring, glues
Hitmonchan's feet to the
floor. The only thing standing in the way of Team Rocket and the championship belt is Ash's Primeape,
and Meowth has another trick up his kitty sleeve. Pikachu spies on Team Rocket as Meowth explains that
when Hitmonlee jumps, they'll press a remote button and the device planted under the ring will
electrocute Primeape and explode! Pikachu tries to warn Ash, but he's to busy directing Primeape.
Hitmonlee jumps, but the device doesn't do anything. Hitmonlee now has to play fair and he and Primeape
leap into battle. Once on the ground, Hitmonlee's flurry of kicks keeps Primeape at bay. Rebecca's dad
says he can't beat Hitmonlee unless he gets on the inside of the kicks. Primeape ducks Hitmonlee's kick
and gives him an uppercut that sends him flying! Primeape leaps up after him and slams Hitmonlee onto
the mat with a seismic toss. Primeape and Ash won the P-1 Grand Prix! Rebecca's dad is impressed and
offers to train Primeape to be a real P-1 championn.
Meowth can't figure out what went wrong. Pikachu crawls out from under the ring, hands Meowth the
device and walks off. Meowth inspects the device which then electrocutes Team Rocket and explodes,
throwing them from the stadium. In the end Rebecca's dad promises to train Primeape well and Rebecca
promises to get her dad to spend more time with his family.
Episode 29 - "Sparks Fly for Magnemite"
Gringy City. Factories, pollution, and little life. That's the location of this episode as Ash and friends
enter the grimy little burg. Pikachu doesn't look so well, so they rush him to the Pokémon Center. A
somewhat indifferent Nurse Joy says that Pikachu just has a cold and he'll be better after a nights
rest. Meanwhile, Team Rocket begins their dastardly plan. They try to sneak into the center by sewer,
but a city-wide blackout shuts off the oxygen pump to their suits and they're forced to surface. This is
bad news not only for Jesse and James stuck under a river of smelly sewer slime, but for the Pokémon
in intensive care at the Pokémon Centre as well. Officer Jenny points Ash and company in the way of
the electric plant. Although ill, Pikachu insists on tagging along. Once there, an unseen presence chills
Misty to the bone and Brock soon sees it too. Ash challenges it to step forward so they can it, unless
it's a monster or a ghost, in which case it could stay where it is. The presence is a Magnemite (a metallic
orby-thingy with screws and magnets stuck to it) that is obviously quite attracted to Pikachu as it
floats around, following him. (This Magnemite has been stalking Pikachu since he entered the city)
Pikachu isn't too pleased to have a creepy metal ball float behind him and Ash tells it to buzz off.
Magnemite zooms off, but most likely from the stench of the Grimers (living piles of smelly sludge) that
drop down from the air ducts a moment later. Misty loudly expresses how bad they smell, and a Muk (a
bigger pile of sludge, second-stage Grimer) whose apparently the leader orders an attack.
Ash and pals get chased down the hallways of the electric plant and run into the guys who run the place.
They all run to the control room and lock the door. The plant technicians explain that the Grimers have
blocked the pipes that lead to the generators, and without that water they can't run the plant. The
Grimers knock down the door and Pikachu's thunder shock is practically useless (because he's ill). All
hope seems lost, but it's Magnemite to the rescue! It brought along some Magnetons (three Magnemites
stuck together, second-stage Magnemite) that electrocute the attacking Grimers and the herd the
Grimers out the pipes. All that remains is an attacking Muck, which is weakened by a combined electric
attack from Pikachu and Magnemite. Ash catches it in a Pokéball, but it still smells terrible.
The next morning, Pikachu feels alot better. When an electric Pokémon, like Pikachu, gets sick, it
stores up a lot of energy and becomes magnetized. It could explain why Magnemite was "attracted", so
to speak, to Pikachu, and why it's ignoring him now. Now Pikachu really feels better. Just then, Team
Rocket splashes out of the bay with huge magnet on a submarine. Thinking Pikachu is still sick, they turn
on the magnet and attract a ton of Magnetons. The weight of the Magnetons cause the submarine to sink,
dragging them under water. Also, Professor Oak isn't too pleased when Ash sends him his new Muk.
Episode 30 - "Dig Those Diglett!"
Like most of the time, our heroes, Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu are lost in the forest. Fumbling
over his map, Brock tries to figure out where they are until he realizes that they're surrounded by
mountains. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are planning to have a little picnic not far from Ash and the gang.
James decides to go eat some crumpets as Jesse settles for some chinese food, while Meowth does some
sit-ups. Just before they eat, a huge explosion causes the ground to shake and Team Rocket has their
food flipped onto their heads. Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu feel the explosion too and run towards the
sound to see what's happening.
The gang arrive at a narrow road that runs through the forest. There were some huge construction
vehicles and trucks that were lining up on the road. The explosions were from the dynamite that was
planted on the mountainside. Suddenly, the tire of one of the huge trucks fall into a hole and causes a
chain reaction among the other trucks. Pretty soon, there was a huge pile of overturned trucks along the
road. A worker with a funky accent jumps out of one of the trucks and starts complaining about
Digletts (a weiner-looking Pokémon that lives in the ground). The worker tells Ash that some Digletts
are creating havoc for the construction workers by making their trucks fall over. He says that they're
going to build a dam, called the Giva Dam but it's pretty obvious that the Digletts don't like the idea of
it and keep preventing the construction workers from doing their work. The worker offers Ash the
reward of staying 7 days at a resort if he could get rid of the Digletts. Without warning, Gary shows
up in a red convertible with some girls. With some sly talk, Gary tell Ash that he's a loser and that
he'll be able to get rid of the Digletts for sure. Drooling, Brock asks who the girls are and Gary just
tells him that they're just some friends of his. Brock desperately asks the girls for their phone
numbers but they don't give it to him. After a while, Gary drives off.
A rally is held later on by the worker to address all Pokémon trainers about the Digletts. Meanwhile,
Jesse, James and Meowth are watching from above. Jesse gets an idea and plans to take all the
people's Pokémons from the rally but she soon realizes that Team Rocket can't go up against them with
just Ekans and Koffing. Then, Jesse and James suddenly say talk about how much they'll miss their
Pokémons (Ekans and Koffing) when they evolve. Crying, they huge their Pokémons and without warning,
Ekans and Koffing begin to evolve. Back at the rally, some Digletts appear and all the Pokémon trainers,
including Gary and Ash, start throwing their Pokéballs, but nothing happens. None of the Pokémons jump
out of their Pokéballs. Pretty soon, a huge pile of Pokéballs form, but the Digletts give them back their
owners (pretty polite creatures) and the pile is soon gone.
That night, Ash and company are enjoying themselves in a hot spring. Then, some Digletts appear
from the rocks near them. Pikachu and the rest of them start following the Digletts as they form a huge
line and head towards some place with branches and sticks on their heads. Some people are trying to hit
the Digletts with some sledgehammers but they don't succeed. The worker, Ash, Misty, Brock and
Pikachu follow the Digletts to a mountainside filled with working Digletts and Dugtrios (the evolved
form of a Diglett) who help plant flowers and trees. The worker finally sees that the Digletts are
trying to protect their land and which is why they're trying to stall the construction of the dam. As
usual, Team Rocket show up but with a surprise this time. Instead of bring out Koffing and Ekans, they
have Weezing (the second stage of Koffing) and Arbock (the second stage of Ekans). It wasn't long
until there was a loud rumble. The Digletts formed a huge, moving pile of dirt towards Team Rocket.
Jesse and James manage to stay on the top of the moving pile and pretend that they're surfing.
Without realizing it until the last moment, the huge pile of dirt, as well as Team Rocket surfing on top
of it, smash into the unfinished dam. (what a mess)
Pretty soon, it is over. The worker realizes that the habitants of the forest would be without a place
to live if the dam was built, and that the water would be flooded over their former homes. He decides
to stop the building of the dam (well, the dam is already destroyed anyway).
Ash and the rest of the gang happily leave on their way to becoming great Pokémon trainers.

Episode 31 - "The Ninja Poké-Showdown"
Ash and the gang are on their way to look for Fuschia Gym. They find themselves in a deep
forest...and no big surprise, they're lost. Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu decides to take a break and
rest near a stream. Psyduck stops to take a drink while Brock's Vulpix is being groomed. Misty is
desperate to get rid of Psyduck because she thinks it's useless. Unknown to them was there
another person, or Pokémon, watching them from behind the trees. Soon, they're on their way again.
Soon, they find a huge house. The gang enters the building and looks around. Misty decides to lean
on one of the walls and the wall moves on her. She falls behind it as Brock points out that it's a secret
room. They see a Venonat around the corner. They decide to chase it. As Ash is running, gets
electrocuted by a Voltorb, planted on the ground. After that incident, Ash and company go up the
stairs. They turn and Ash slams into another invisible wall. Ash turns around and finds himself
face-to-face with another invisible wall (what a bad day for him). Desperate to get out, Ash pushes one
of the wooden walls and the wall falls towards a river far below. Misty and Brock manage to rescue
